Evaluation is an important aspect of staff development service. However, it is frequently overlooked or superficially addressed in staff development quality management programs. This article emphasizes the importance of multilevel evaluation techniques to assure quality education and promote effective use of staff development resources. The author suggests the greatest impact in staff development evaluation lies in the ability to demonstrate transference of learning to the bedside.

Education centers. What features are best?

Nurse educators in the 1990s need to conserve resources, decrease duplication in staff training efforts, maintain educational quality, and provide a flexible learning environment. Educators at the University of Minnesota Hospital and Clinic in Minneapolis find these goals easier to achieve since they designed an education center in 1986. Orientation, continuing education, inservice, and skills fairs are some activities that take place in the center. In this article, the authors describe the center and give useful tips for readers interested in developing a similar facility.
